Next week, Emmerdale will break our hearts as Marshall Hamston bids farewell to the village, leaving Arthur Thomas, his first love, utterly crushed.
Things began last year when Arthur, who had recently come out as gay, told his friends he had a crush on the teen. The two quickly bonded and were almost at the point of sharing a kiss when Marshall's homophobic dad, Colin, did everything in his power to keep them apart, including sending his son to boarding school.
However, Arthur refused to let Colin abuse Marshall and confided in Laurel, who offered Marshall a safe and loving environment to be himself. With his sexuality no longer a secret, Marshall asked Arthur out on a date, and the two became boyfriends.
The couple have remained in the background since then, but are back in the spotlight next week as Marshall leaves the village, ending things with Arthur. The scenes will be heartbreaking, with Marshall sharing a heartfelt moment with Laurel before leaving with his auntie. Arthur, meanwhile, struggles to hold back tears and breaks down in Laurel's arms.
Marshall and Arthur's romance was incredibly well-received by Emmerdale fans, with viewers praising Max Fletcher and Alfie Clarke's performances throughout. We'll miss you, Marshall!
Be sure to tune in next week on Thursday July 20 at 7pm on ITV1 and ITVX to experience the heartbreaking goodbye for yourself.
